Back at POPPY's House

Well, we are back! What a wonderful feeling to be back in Peru with the girls and friends at POPPY's house. Matthew, Kristi and I(Kathi) are back to do more work down here. We were blessed with a good trip and had fun sharing all the goodies we brought from the US for other missionaries here.  We were a little distraught to find our little house we moved into a few weeks before we left, was covered with some white, chalky substance from painting and sanding done while we were gone. Yes, everything we had left behind was a TOTAL mess. I am always surprised that no one thinks of moving things from one room to another if work needs to be done. Protection of property certainly is not a high priority. So, due to the fact that we can hardly breathe in there, not to mention who knows what is in this product, and that the water pump at the house has been disconnected for some reason, we are back in the dorm room! We are slowly going through our things and cleaning them up, and bringing them over to our dorm room.  A mess!!!
 
Here are some of the pictures we have taken since we have gotten back. ENJOY! Please continue to pray for us as we seek God's leading personally to how long we should stay here and also for the organization. They are struggling financially, as are a lot of self-supporting organizations. If you are interested in donating, learning more about it, or interested in coming down as a volunteer go to http://peopleofperu.org/
